Numerous scenarios in science and technology require the estimation of vectors such as electric, magnetic, gravitational or other force fields with extreme precision, the fundamental limits to which are set by quantum mechanics. In their latest paper, Tillmann Baumgratz and Animesh Datta show that quantum mechanics allows a more precise estimation of multiple parameters simultaneously rather than individually. The result provides a fundamentally better way estimating vector fields for a fixed amount of resources, and could be used in applications ranging from the study of quantum phase transitions to neuroimaging.

The most Earth-like planet could have been made uninhabitable by vast quantities of radiation, new research led by Dr Dave Armstrong of the Astronomy Group has found. The atmosphere of the planet, Kepler-438b, is thought to have been...

A team of researchers from the Astrophysics Group led by Tom Louden discovered winds of over 2km per second flowing around a planet outside of the Earth’s solar system.

“This is the first ever weather map from outside of our solar system. Whilst we have previously known of wind on exoplanets, we have never before been able to directly measure and map a weather system.”
